Quoted from Chambahz:So if I understand this correctly (and maybe I don't)...
With the current system, I pay $X for the part, and $100 or so for someone to come to my house and fix something, vs $175 in total for one of these new boards, but I'm far more likely to be able to do it myself?
If that's what we're talking about, it's certainly not terrible for those of us who don't know how to do this stuff, or are all thumbs.
The other potential issue is some of the node boards are custom for a specific game. So the worry is will a node board that was only used on a single game still be avail in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, etc. There would be less concern if the nodes boards were universal and could be swapped with any other spike game.
